How does GrapheneOS work with carriers? (lemmy.world)

In the market for a new phone and I want to try out GrapheneOS. I know I need a Pixel phone (rather ironic i need to get a google device to degoogle), but I already made the mistake of buying a carrier locked pixel previously. If I do buy a phone third party (through google or some other place) and then install GOS on it, would I be able to transfer my services over to the new phone running GOS? Would there be any issues with my carrier?

As long as it is unlocked and it supports the network bands, yes. gsmarena.com is a great resource. Look up the phone and look under the network section to see which specific bands the phone supports. Then look up the bands used by your provider (I don’t have a specific website for this) and compare.
